Before and After...

We decided a while ago that it was time for change with sleeping arrangements. We even played "Musical Beds" a few times to try things out (yes, we called it that, and the kids still ask to play it again). We eventually decided that Cloudburst would move into the guest room to have her own space, and Sunshine and Tornado would start rooming together. The baby will get the last room, which will also double as our guest room now. So we officially have a Boys Room and a Girl room to have fun with! So I got a few colors of vinyl and went to town on my Cricut:

And then this past weekend we completed a project that I've been wanting to do for a while... get control over the toys! We had toys in a cabinet downstairs, and also in a closet upstairs. And then they pretty much ended up all over the house, just waiting to get stepped on in the middle of the night. No more, Mama's had enough!

All of the toys are now upstairs in the closet, nicely organized by toy type. Now, if you look VERY closely, you may notice the new door knob I installed... with a LOCK on it. Ha ha! Cloudburst and Sunshine kept asking me why we needed a new door handle. I just told them it was because Tornado kept making messes. Well, that's one-third true...
And this pic I had to throw in to show you Tornado's new wardrobe options... they now include underwear! Yes, we are in the midst of potty-training. He's had a few accidents, but is definitely starting to get the hang of things. It helps to have the whole cheerleading squad in the bathroom to throw him a party whenever he does his business. Having a big brother and sister definitely has its perks!
